Hello all 
Now that my first v/a project and my album has moved into post-production, I have the time once again to work on another v/a project.
Here is the info:
V/A - "What It Is Like To Be A Luna Moth"
This will be a concept V/A, with the name rather self-explanatory. The v/a on the whole is intended to be an experimental v/a with a highly abstract concept which will hopefully yield some very unique, immersive tunes.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actias_luna
Here is the criteria for track submissions:
1.) Even though this will be a full length release, there will only be four tracks, representing the stages in the life cycle of the luna moth.
The names of the four tracks will be as follows:
1. Egg
2. Larva
3. Chrysalis (Coccoon)
4. Pupation
2.) Since there will be so few tracks on a full length release, I will only consider tracks that fall between 15 and no more than 20 minutes long. Your track submission must be made with the v/a concept in mind and the track must be named to reflect which life cycle stage of the moth your track represents (track names provided above)
3.) As the length of the tracks is exceedingly ample, I am expecting artists to really be creative and not to rely on any certain formula.
4.) Even though I am putting the call for tracks to mainly psy-trance artists, I am open to tracks of any so-called genre, as long as the v/a's theme is kept in mind during production. I fully expect to see some ambient, downtempo, trance, or whatever.
5.) In short:
There are no tempo, style, time signature, etc. restrictions beyond adherence to the guidelines above.
Track submissions can be, but are not required to be, "for the dancefloor".
As this concept is fairly unique and abstract, and each track will be quite long and made specifically for this v/a, I expect this release to take time to complete, thus am open to incomplete demos as long as the artist provides progression updates regularly.
IMPORTANT!: I will ONLY accept demos sent to the following e-mail: psyaxismundi@gmail.com. Included MUST be the name of the track, the name of the artist project, and contact info for the artist. Due to the overwhelming amount of demos for my last v/a (roughly 150), this is the only way I can keep track of things accurately.
Also, I simply cannot afford to pay money for your tracks, as much as you may deserve it. So please, no solicitations.
release label/medium: TBA
mastered by: TBA

Thanks for reading! Looking forward to hearing you guys push your creative limits

I don't have one yet. Given the nature of the track request, I'm willing to wait a bit, especially for the most quality music I can get.

I'm proud to announce that Colin OOOD will be doing the mastering, so feel free to send any demos, works in progress, and/or letters of interest you may have.
Thanks!

Damn. That dude's artwork is sick!
For the art, I was thinking of something a bit more photorealistic. I know a guy who does some nice psychedelic photography... he's done flyers etc. for us in the past. I might see if he has any ideas. Either way, I'll be communicating with the artists on different art ideas when the time comes.
Great to hear your interest Be creative, interactive, and I'm looking forward to hearing the result
